CHALK DUST REMOVAL WITH AIR PURIFIERS
Magnesite powder is commonly used in climbing gyms to allow a better grip on the climbing wall. The airborne dust is inhaled by the occupants of the room causing potential respiratory problems and an experience of malaise on the busiest days. Moreover, the chalk dust, depositing itself on the equipment and on the surfaces of the room, requires constant cleaning operations.
In climbing gyms, therefore, magnesite is one of the main sources of indoor air pollution, in addition to other pollutants such as emissions from construction materials and furnishings, chemical compounds contained in cleaning products, and outdoor pollutants that penetrate inside buildings.
Effective air filtration reduces the level of airborne contaminants, improving well-being, health and sports performance.
BENEFITS OF GOOD AIR QUALITY:
- Improved health;
- Better performance and quick recovery;
- Reduced labour and less training interruptions related to housekeeping.

PM1 IMPACT ON HEALTH
CLEAN AIR FOR BETTER RECOVERY
If an elite athlete trains for 5 hours a day, sleeps for 8 hours and spends 11 hours doing ordinary everyday activities, he or she can take in approximately 73 m³ of air.
Given the overall impact of pollution on the lung tissues, in combination with other reactions, for a part of every day elite athletes need to breathe air that has been cleaned in order to reduce the volume of harmful particulates that they take in. The inhalation of nanoparticles enhances calcium influx on contact with macrophages that weaken the immune system.
This mechanism, combined with increased oxidative stress from the higher number of inhaled particles, probably impacts our lung function and performance negatively. Clean air has a positive effect on our bodies and immune system, reducing the risk of inflammation and asthma.
